Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel 21-alkylated steroids of the pregnane series to processes for their preparation and to pharmaceutical compositions containing same.
  • R 1 is preferably methyl;
  • R 2 is preferably carboxyacyl (1-10 C); and
  • Y is preferably H( ⁇ OH).
  • novel compounds possess strong anti-inflammatory properties, when applied locally and cause little or no systemic, thymolytic, adrenolytic and salt-retaining effects. Moreover, they have no or low skin-thinning effects, skin-thinning being an undesired side-effect of many known anti-inflammatory steroids.
  • the novel compounds have a very rapid onset of action and are very useful in the treatment of anti-inflammatory conditions especially those associated with the skin and allergic reactions. They can be administered topically in the form of ointments, creams, lotions or sprays or by injection, for instance intra-articularly for the local treatment of inflammation, possibly in combination with other active ingredients.
  • An advantage of the novel compounds in pharmaceutical formulation is that they are better and more soluble in the usual vehicles for topical application, which promotes even distribution on the skin and skin penetration, thus promoting their anti-inflammatory effects.
  • 21-Alkylated steroids of the pregnane series are known.
  • FR-A-2 168 006 discloses 21-alkylated steroids of the pregnane series having anti-inflammatory properties and particularly relates to 21-alkylated pregnanes having methyl groups in 16- and 17 ⁇ -position.
  • This publication also discloses 17a-acylated pregnane compounds but in that case the compounds carry an alkyl group in position 16.
  • any further information is given on the nature of the acyl group in 17 ⁇ -position except at page 3, lines 23-30, where it is said that a free hydroxy group if present in 17 ⁇ -position might be alkylated during the 21-alkylation giving an ether group in position 17 ⁇ .
  • the 17o-hydroxy group can be protected in the form of an ester group. After the alkylation the ester group can be hydrolysed to give back the 17 ⁇ -hydroxy group.
  • US-A-3 045 010 and US-A-3 064 017 disclose steroid compounds having an a-acyloxy propanoyl group at position 17 ⁇ , e.g. 21-methyl-17 ⁇ ,21-dihydroxy-progesterone 21-acylates, having adrenocortical activity, especially mineralocorticoid activity. These compounds possess an acyloxy group in 21-position and are not acylated in 17 ⁇ -position, whereas the compounds of the present invention have a propanoyl group at the 17p-position (i.e. no acyloxy group in 21-position) and are acylated in 17 ⁇ -position.
  • DE-B-1 167829 discloses 21-methyl- ⁇ 4 -pregnen-11 ⁇ ,17 ⁇ -diol-3,20-dione having anti-inflammatory properties. This compound is the free 17a-alcohol of the 21-methyl-4 4- compounds according to the invention.
  • novel compounds of the present invention are superior over the prior art compounds therein that they possess a greater potency as anti-inflammatory compounds in the Human Vasoconstriction Test and moreover have the advantage of being devoid of skin thinning effects.
  • They may be prepared starting from 20-oxo-17a-oxy steroids of the pregnane series via the Mannich reaction (see e.g. U.S. Patents 3,064,017 and 3,069,415) by treating a 20-oxo-17 ⁇ -hydroxy (or -acyloxy) compound of the pregnane series with the salt of an amine, preferably a lower alkyl amine, in the presence of formaldehyde and converting the thus-formed 21-amino-methyl compound into a quaternary ammonium derivative, which is converted into a 21-methylene compound by treatment with a base, and the 21-methylene derivative is either reduced catalytically to the desired 21-methyl compound or converted by 1,4-Grignardation to another 21-alkyl compound.
  • a present 17 ⁇ -hydroxy group is acylated according to standard procedures so as to obtain the required 17 ⁇ -OR2 substituent. A drawback of this procedure is that yields are low.
  • Another method of introducing a 21-alkyl group into a 20-oxo-1 7a-oxy steroid of the pregnane series is the method disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,947,478.
  • a 20-oxo-17a;-oxy steroid of the pregnane series is alkylated in 21-position by first forming the D 20 -enolate salt with trityl lithium, a lithium dialkylamide, preferably lithium di-isopropylamide, or a Grignard reagent and then reacting the ⁇ 20 -enolate salt with an alkyl(1-4 C)halide, preferably an alkyl(1-4 C)iodide, for example methyl iodide.
  • the 1 7a-oxy substituent is preferably not a free hydroxyl group as this may become alkylated during the reaction sequence.
  • the 17 ⁇ -oxy substituent is a 17a-acyloxy group with the formula 17 ⁇ -OR 2 , wherein R z is as defined above.
  • an oxygen function at C-3 it is preferable to protect an oxygen function at C-3 if one is present by reversible ether formation such as tetrahydropyranyl ether in the case of a 3-hydroxyl group or a ⁇ 3,5 -enol ether in the case of a ⁇ 4 -3-oxo grouping, or by acetal formation such as the dimethyl acetal in the case of a 3-oxo group to prevent unwanted alkylation reactions such as O-alkylation which would take place at the same time as 21-alkylation if the starting material contained a free 3-hydroxyl group or 3-acyloxy group or to prevent unwanted C-alkylation reactions from taking place in the a-position to a free 3-oxo group if such were present.
  • reversible ether formation such as tetrahydropyranyl ether in the case of a 3-hydroxyl group or a ⁇ 3,5 -enol ether in the case of a ⁇ 4 -3-oxo grouping,
  • an 11-hydroxyl substituent if one is present in the starting material before carrying out the alkylation procedure to prevent the simultaneous formation of an 11 -0-alkylated derivative which cannot be readily converted back to the free hydroxyl group.
  • an 11 ⁇ -hydroxyl group it is preferable to protect it by reversible ether formation such as the tetrahydropyranyl ether but when an 11f3-hydroxyl substituent is present, because of its very sterically hindered position in the steroid molecule it is sufficient to protect it as an ester such as the acetate in which case the acyl group may itself undergo alkylation.
  • Another method for making the compounds of the present invention is to start from a corresponding 21-hydroxy derivative (see e.g. U.S. Patents 3,064,017 and 3,280,159) and eliminating the 21-hydroxy group according to standard procedures well-known to those skilled in the art (see e.g. German Patent Specification 1,167,829).
  • the 21-hydroxy group is converted into the 21-sulphonic acid ester group, such as the mesylate, by reaction with an organic sulphonic acid halide such as e.g.
  • methane sulphonic acid chloride at low temperature (0-20°C) in the presence of a base, preferably an organic base such as pyridine, whereafter the 21-sulphonic acid ester group is eliminated by treatment with sodiumiodide in acetic acid anhydride, while heating.
  • a base preferably an organic base such as pyridine
  • 21-sulphonic acid ester group is eliminated by treatment with sodiumiodide in acetic acid anhydride, while heating.
  • a present 17 ⁇ -hydroxy group is then acylated according to standard procedure so as to obtain the required 17 ⁇ -OR 2 substituent.
  • a novel and very convenient method for making the compounds of the present invention is to start from a corresponding 17 ⁇ ,21-dihydroxy-20-oxo pregnane compound.
  • the 21-hydroxy group is converted into the 21-sulphonic acid ester group, such as the 21-mesylate, by reaction with the appropriate sulphonic acid halide, such as methane sulphonic acid chloride, whereafter the 21-sulphonate is reacted with a lithium-dialkylcopper compound to give the corresponding 21-alkyl-17 ⁇ -hydroxy-20-oxo steroid, which is then acylated in 17 ⁇ -position, for example by treatment with the appropriate acid anhydride in the presence of p-toluene sulphonic acid or 4-dimethylamino pyridine.
  • This route of making the novel compounds of the present invention from 21-hydroxy pregnanes has the advantage, that it is a short route, that no protecting groups are required for protecting oxo- and/or hydroxy groups in ring A and/or C, including 3-oxo- ⁇ 4 and 3-oxo- ⁇ 1,4 systems and that the starting materials, such as hydrocortisone, cortisone, prednisolone and prednisone, are readily available.
  • the conversion of the 21-hydroxy group into the sulphonic acid ester group is carried out as described hereinbefore for the 21-alkyl-21-hydroxy pregnanes.
  • the reaction with lithium-dialkylcopper is carried out in an inert solvent, such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran and preferably dimethylformamide, and at a temperature in the range of between -75°C and 0°C.
  • Protecting groups are hydrolysed by methods known in the art.
  • a 3-hydroxyl group may be oxidised, for example, by Oppenauer oxidation in the case of a ⁇ 5 - steroid to furnish a 0 4- 3-oxo steroid, or with chromic acid in the case of either a 5 ⁇ - or 5 ⁇ -3-hydroxy derivative to give the corresponding saturated 3-ketone.
  • an additional double bond may be introduced at positions C 1 ⁇ C 2 by known chemical means such as by reaction with suitable quinone derivatives or microbiologically with an appropriate microorganism.
  • a 3-oxo-5a-steroid may be converted to a ⁇ 1,4 -3-oxo steroid by means of selenium dioxide or by reaction with a quinone such as dichlorodicyanobenzoquinone or by halogenation at positions 2 and 4 and subsequent dehydrohalogenation by methods known in the art.
  • a 3-oxo-5 ⁇ -steroid may be converted into a ⁇ °-3-oxo steroid by means of selenium dioxide or by mono-bromination at position 4 followed by dehydrobromination and the so formed ⁇ 4 -3-ketone may be transformed into the ⁇ 1,4 -3-ketone by further reaction with selenium dioxide or dichloro-dicyano- benzoquinone.
  • a 3-oxo-5f3-steroid may be converted directly into a ⁇ 1,4 -3-ketone by reaction with selenium dioxide or by reaction with a suitable quinone such as dichloro-dicyanobenzoqui- none, or by di-halogenation for example di-bromination at positions 2 and 4 and subsequent dehydrohalogenation by methods known in the art.
  • the microbiological introduction of a double bond at position C 1 ⁇ C 2 may be carried out by incubation with a 1,2-dehydro-genating micro-organism, for example Corynbacterium Simplex, Bacillus sphaericus or Bacillus subtilis.
  • a 1,2-dehydro-genating micro-organism for example Corynbacterium Simplex, Bacillus sphaericus or Bacillus subtilis.
  • a ⁇ 1,4 -3-oxo steroid can be converted into a ⁇ 4 -3-oxo steroid by ⁇ 1 -hydrogenation e.g. by catalytic hydrogenation in the presence of the homogenous catalyst tris-triphenylphosphine rhodium (I) chloride.
  • a ⁇ 9(11) -double bond if present may be converted to the 9 ⁇ -bromo-11 ⁇ -hydroxy compound or an ester thereof by methods known in the art and then reduced (debrominated) to the corresponding 9 ⁇ H-11 ⁇ -OH compound.
  • Introduction of an 1 1-hydroxyl group may be performed microbiologically, e.g. by incubation with an 11-hydroxylating microorganism such as Curvularia or a Rhizopus.
  • An 11-hydroxy group may be oxidised to an 11-keto-group, acylated or dehydrated to form a ⁇ 9(11) -double bond.
  • an 11 ⁇ -acyloxy group if present, may be hydrolysed to the corresponding 11 ⁇ -hydroxy derivative under relatively mild conditions with alcoholic alkali and the so formed 11 ⁇ -hydroxy group may then be oxidised if desired to the corresponding 11-ketone.
  • a 17a-hydroxy group if still present, has to be acylated to obtain the compounds of the present invention.
  • a present 11 ⁇ - or 11f3-hydroxyl substituent is temporarily protected by reversible ether formation, such as the tetrahydropyranyl ether or reversible ester formation, such as the acetate, the trifluoracetate or the trichloroethoxyformate, the deprotection being carried out by selective hydrolysis as known in the art, for instance the 11-trifluoracetate can be selectively hydrolysed with sodium formate or potassium carbonate in methanol, particularly in the case of a 3-oxo- ⁇ 1,4 -steroid, and the trichloro ethoxyformate with zinc in refluxing methanol.
  • a present 17a-carboxy-acyloxy group may be hydrolysed and reacylated, if required.
  • carboxy-acyloxy groups are those derived from saturated or unsaturated, straight or branched chain, mono-, di- or polybasic, unsubstituted or substituted (for example by hydroxyl, amino or one or more halogen atoms) organic carboxylic acids.
  • Suitable are also carboxy-acyloxy groups derived from cycloaliphatic aromatic, mixed aromatic-aliphatic or heterocyclic carboxylic acids, which can likewise be substituted in the ordinary manner.
